All 10 results for alleged speaker:Bob Stewart

Debate on the Address: [1st Day] (11 May 2021)

Bob Stewart: ...that the new Bill might involve introducing what could be called a qualified statute of limitations, with the presumption that no charges should be brought against security force personnel for alleged offences before the Good Friday agreement of 1998. Quite rightly, this plan is based on the fact that if no new compelling evidence against such people has been brought forward, such a...

Overseas Operations (Service Personnel and Veterans) Bill: New Clause 1 - Judicial oversight of investigations ( 3 Nov 2020)

Bob Stewart: Not only the ambulance-chasing lawyers, but it is really good that we will not ever see the Iraq Historic Allegations Team, which really made our soldiers’ lives hell when it investigated them. That will not happen again either.

Overseas Operations (Service Personnel And Veterans) Bill (23 Sep 2020)

Bob Stewart: I hope so, but I am not sure that it can retrospectively. We all know that a lot of money was made—3,400 allegations were made about our servicemen and servicewomen, and 65% of those were made by Mr Shiner’s company, Public Interest Lawyers, which made a heck of a lot of money. With every accusation, the Ministry of Defence had to back it up with legal aid. The lawyers got four hours of...

Overseas Operations (Service Personnel And Veterans) Bill (23 Sep 2020)

Bob Stewart: ...the Ministry of Defence had to pay out £40 million for fallacious claims and another £10 million on Operation Northmoor, which was about Afghanistan. I am pretty appalled that the Iraq Historic Allegations Team within the Ministry of Defence did what it did. It did not help our armed forces, and that is held against the Ministry of Defence. It should have sorted that out a long time ago....

Historic Allegations against Veterans (15 May 2018)

Bob Stewart: The Government will maintain that they have no choice but to follow the rule of law with regard to prosecuting historic allegations against veteran soldiers who fought in Northern Ireland. What total twaddle! If so, which rule of law was followed when PIRA terrorists who killed so many people were released, pardoned and given promises that they would not be further prosecuted after the Good...

Wilson Doctrine: Armed Forces Bill (15 Oct 2015)

Bob Stewart: On the argument about people visiting this country being subject to our military law, a big worry would be that we do not want other nations to apply their military law to our service men when they allegedly do something wrong in those countries. We want our military law to extend to our service men, wherever they are in the world.

Backbench Business: High Court Judgment (John Downey) (27 Mar 2014)

Bob Stewart: ...and terrorists during the Northern Ireland peace process. When the letter was issued to Downey, the authorities either missed the fact that Downey was wanted on a 20-year arrest warrant for his alleged part in the July 1982 Hyde park bomb, or they decided to ignore the fact. I totally understand why so many people are utterly dismayed by the fact that a suspect for the murders of four...

Business of the House: Syria (10 Jan 2013)

Bob Stewart: ..., as a result of which instructions to the International Criminal Court are hamstrung, does my right hon. Friend agree that it is a key responsibility of whatever regime follows in Syria to indict alleged war criminals and bring them to trial, rather than pass them to the International Criminal Court?

Oral Answers to Questions — Health: Clause 1 — Approval of Croatian Accession Treaty (27 Nov 2012)

Bob Stewart: ...covered in earlier debates when I was not present, but is it true that if Croatia acceded to the European Union, it would be easier for the International Criminal Court to serve an indictment on an alleged war criminal who happened to be Croatian than is currently the case because Croatia is not a member of the European Union?

Written Answers — Health: South London and Maudsley NHS Trust: Prisoners ( 8 Mar 2012)

Bob Stewart: ...the (a) name of patient, (b) age, (c) ward, (d) date of absconding, (e) method by which they absconded, (f) whether on remand or committed following sentence, (g) date of committal, (h) offence or alleged offence for which remanded or committed, (i) date apprehended, (j) place apprehended, (k) how apprehended and (l) whether subsequently charged with escaping lawful custody was of each...
